<p>Hey, I was thinking, we've been casting about for a way for folks to declare that they are "on vacation"... one super simple way would be a stream #vacations and people can make topics with their github user name and post things like <code>2020-07-20 .. 2020-07-24</code> or whatever</p>

<p><span class="user-mention" data-user-id="116009">@nikomatsakis</span> Might want to have that be a more private stream, as people might want to inform governance/teams but not the general public. (Debian vacation notices are private for that exact reason.)</p>

<p>I think a private stream would be a good start, while it might not fix highfive prs &amp; issues on the main repo can be re-assigned through triage.</p>

<p>One of the reasons I've been wanting for us to try having something like nextcloud would be to have a way to communicate your free time to others in the org. It has stuff like Free/Busy on calendars for booking meetings.</p>

<p>I was wondering how about people could post in the weekly triage reports in <a class="stream" data-stream-id="242269" href="/#narrow/stream/242269-t-release.2Ftriage">#t-release/triage</a> that they are unavailable for the week so that reassignments / "prs kept aside for a week till you are back" can happen</p>

<p>Private streams require us to maintain membership, I have no idea how we would do that.</p>

<p>i think what we could do is split it into - tell internal members (team members / other leads / etc ) about the vacation while for the public it can be "not available this week, or will look into &lt;particular matter / all matters&gt; next week (so that public can't diff between "on vacation" and "busy this week"</p>

<p>That sounds better. "Busy" could have any number of reasons. And it's also enough of a reason to temporarily opt out of being assigned by the highfive bot.</p>
